The purpose of this case is to see and understand how e-learning tool contributed to an improvement in the processes of Cisco Systems by answering the following questions: 1. Differences between e-learning and e-training.

2. What measures has Cisco adopted to encourage its employees to use e-learning? 3. Comment on the effectiveness of the e-learning programs at Cisco.

Cisco Systems is one of the fastest growing companies in the world, selling devices that connect computers to the Internet and to other networks. Cisco’s products are being replaced continuously, so extensive training of employees and customers is needed. Cisco recognizes that every member of its team, since the employees until business partners, including also customers require training on a continuous basis. Cisco began to focus on networks in 2000 after realizing the future of voice and video services lay in operating on a single platform. Since 2008, its strategy has been based on collaborating with partners to share expertise and Web 2.0. Cisco provides specialization training content for partners as free e-learning. This training is available for partner employees to learn the content and help them prepare for an exam. The use of e-learning helps manage the costs and effort that a partner has to bear in obtaining the training. In Cisco’s approach, training is not mandatory as long as the employee passes the appropriate exam. The company continuously updates the training content and the corresponding exams. To ensure that employees stay current, Cisco requires that these employee certifications be renewed annually. The company makes hundreds of courses available free through the Partner E-Learning web site. These courses are available in multiple languages around the world and cover both sales technical training. Cisco’s experience is that training that is not validated with competence testing is not effective In order to make a difference between...

CiscoSystems Pioneers E‐Learning
The Problem
CiscoSystems is one of the fastest‐growing high‐tech companies in the world, selling devices that
connect computers and networks to the Internet and other networks. Cisco’s products are continuously
being upgraded or replaced; so extensive training of employees and customers is needed. Cisco has
recognized that its employees, business partners, and independent students seeking professional
certification all require training on a continuous basis. Traditional classroom training was flawed by its
inability to scale rapidly enough. Cisco offered in‐house classes for each course, 6 to 10 times a year, in
many locations, but the rapid growth in the number of students, coupled with the fast pace of
technological change, made the training both expensive and ineffective.
The Solution
Cisco believes that e‐learning is a revolutionary way to empower its workforce and partners with the
skills and knowledge needed to turn technological change to an advantage. Therefore, Cisco
implemented e‐learning programs that allow students to learn new software, hardware, and
procedures. Cisco believes that once people experience e‐learning, they will recognize that it is the
fastest, easiest...

...INTRODUCTION
E-Learning is the imparting of knowledge via electronic means. Transfer of skills and expertise has been enabled by computers and networks.
At present time, Technology or to use a computer is a common or very popular when it comes into marketing fields, government agencies, business firms, schools and even homes. It makes almost everything possible to do by just using a computer. With the application of information technology, it helps people to do anything, anywhere at any time; it makes their work more efficient because it only takes a small time to get a details.
According on our research, E-learning, sometimes termed computer-based training (CBT), internet-based training (IBT) or web-based training (WBT), includes all forms of electronically supported learning and teaching, including educational technology. E-learning often involves both out-of-classroom and in-classroom educational experiences via technology applications and processes such as Web-based learning, computer-based learning, virtual education opportunities and digital collaboration. E-Learning is the use of technology to enable people to learn anytime and anywhere.
Therefore, the proponents of proposed a project that will seek to accelerate daily activities and to lessen the work of students and also the teachers. It could be described...

Raed Aljammal
Overview
Our project is a technology project. It is a development of E-Learning information
system; and as it is known, such a system can be applied in the education
process in general, I mean that this project can be applied to serve the
education at schools, colleges and universities; applying such a computerized
and inexpensive system will improve the education process and will be
considered as conveying to the new technology era, and it is a facilitating tool
for both teachers and students since it is done online without any stress or
having to attend hour lectures in large hall which sometimes become noisy,
in addition, as we all know the internet is an open and free source to search
for information and it contains billions of books and resources which makes
the e – learningsystem that we will apply in our country to be more beneficial
for students. e-Learning is the online delivery of information, communication,
education, and training. E-Learning provides a new set of tools that can add
value to all the traditional...

...limits before using it, as long as you know how. We always encounter different computer programs, exquisitely edited photos and videos that we enjoy to look up. But behind of all these computer result or output, do you know how it all happened? How a simple image turned to a beautiful picture?
Computer Assisted Instruction is now fashionable, popular in many areas of educational learning and it will help a lot of people especially the students to find out what is behind of this entire computer outcome. This way of learning has been implemented in different areas of the world especially in countries that are in the stage of modernization like the Philippines. This kind of system is very convenient because it is very efficient in terms of time, energy and money. This type of system will be a great advantage and can help you a lot in many things mainly in automated teaching or instructing.
Presented with these details, the proponents mean to propose to develop a Computer Assisted Instruction to interest the college students of STI Sta. Maria and provide them an Online Computer Assisted Instruction System to help them in their study and other things that they need to know in the field on Information Technology.

...Types of Software:
System software
System software is computer software designed to operate the computer hardware, to provide basic functionality, and to provide a platform for running application software. System software includes device drivers, operating systems, servers, utilities, and window systems.
Programming software
Programming software include tools in the form of programs or applications that software developers use to create, debug, maintain, or otherwise support other programs and applications. The term usually refers to relatively simple programs such as compilers, debuggers,interpreters, linkers, and text editors, that can be combined together to accomplish a task, much as one might use multiple hand tools to fix a physical object. Programming tools are intended to assist a programmer in writing computer programs, and they may be combined in an integrated development environment (IDE) to more easily manage all of these functions. Nowadays software is important in our daily lives. Because we are in a modern world in school we use many kind of software in Office for the paper works and even in our house for entertainment. Software make your daily life Complete
